Ya buddy, I'll be there and I can tig pretty well. I have A36 filler rod for mild steel if you wanna try that. I guess you have the l308 filler rod for stainless, just guessing but stainless requires a triple shield or high helium gas mix if you don't have it. Argon is good for mild steel and aluminum. I will also have my stick welder and if needed I'll bring my little Lincoln mig 110 flux core deal if you want? That way everyone can have a try for themselves and have fun with it.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) I'll be there. |

Sorry. Zach |

75% certain I will be there. I'm having a small roof leak/squirrels in the attack crisis that must be resolved first. I'll bring an extra welding helmet or 2 if needed.

Hi fellas,
First post here. I'm in Arlington and I don't have a 914 (yet!). Still, I'd love to come out for a few hours to meet some of the locals. I can bring a few 6 packs of sam adams (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) if you guys are willing to entertain me. I'm a newbie in all respects but have gotten interested in the 914. From what I've read here they seem like fun, certainly unique cars. But before I start getting serious about buying one I figure I should see a few in person! |

I probably won't be able to go, have to head down south to pick up some furniture and a chainsaw from the in-laws.

If someone wants to come up and tow my car down, I would not stop them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad2.gif) I'll offer up my tow bar (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) it worked for 3,000 miles it can work for another hundred or so. Nuts! 11/04 is the weekend the wife and I will be away celibrating 15 yrs. I can't cancel that. Bad enough not noticing the hair cut. Don't want to think about further repurcusions! You all have a good time. Hopefully I can make the next one! |

QUOTE Good Stuff..... I'll be sure to stock up on wire wheels, etc. By the way Evil, what have you learned about 'ulcers'? My youngest son (20 year old) was diagnosed 2 days ago with an ulcer in his duodenim. The Doc at Mercy Medical center is trying to figure what 'caused it and whether it is healing or getting worse. Know anything about these things? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

I know a bit about ulcers, BUT not more than a practicing physician. At best, my current medical knowledge is best used to explain things in plain english and to give people good ideas as to where to look for more info or what to ask the doc.
A quick tid bit for you to search on wikipedia: Helicobacter pylori (SP?) A very common cause of peptic ulcers. They will likely put him on antibiotics to mitigate such a bug should it be there. If it is healing on its own then they may leave it alone. We can talk more on Sat, I gots to go learn more about how pee is made and how the body deals with electrolyte imballances.
